Romine All Smiles Even in Defeat

Adam Laskey raised from under the gun to 2,300 and Rick Romine called from the next seat. Everyone else folded and the flop came down {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. Laskey bet 3,700 and Romine raised to 10,000. Laskey called.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} and Laskey checked. Romine said, "Let's go another 10," and bet 10,000. Laskey called and Romine commented, "Nice... nice."

The river completed the board with the {4-Diamonds} and both players checked. Romine tabled the {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, but Laskey's {K-Hearts}{J-Spades} was a little bit better and he won the pot. Romine was all smiles though and commented, "Nice hand," to Laskey before giving him a fist bump.
